  • (PPG) MEETING – 1430 on 3 SEP 19 Present
    4 Sep 19 THE ALNEY PRACTICE – PRACTICE PARTICIPATION GROUP (PPG) MEETING – 1430 ON 3 SEP 19 Present: Apologies Philip Tagg (PT) Practice Manager Katherine Holland (KH) Rachael Banfield (RB) Health Care Assistant CCG Jeremy Base (JB) Pamela Dewick (KD) Jennifer Taylor (JT) Geoffrey Gidley (GG) Megan Birchley (MB) Mark Weaver (MW) Ken Newman (KN) Nadia Schneider (NS) Carol Kurylat (CK) Taras Kurylat (TK) Denise Leach (DL) Nicky Milligan (NM) 1. PT welcomed attendees to the meeting and thanked them for expressing an interest in establishing a PPG. He explained the background to the former PPGs for the pre-merger practices: • Cheltenham Road Surgery’s PPG was made up of members of the ‘Friends of Cheltenham Road Surgery’, which was a registered charity with the principal aim of raising funds for the surgery, to be spent to the benefit of its patients. The Friends ceased to operate several years ago when several of the members became too old to continue and there were no volunteers willing to take on committee roles. Subsequent attempts to create a replacement PPG were unsuccessful. • College Yard and Highnam had a PPG, which ceased to be active around the time of the merger. 2. PPGs aim to be representative of the practice population and have a principal aim of meeting on regular basis to discuss the services on offer, and how improvements can be made for the benefit of patients and the practice. This initial meeting aimed to set the scene and agree a way ahead. PT also indicated that as a result of the practice merger we will be liable for a CQC inspection before the end of Mar 20, with the potential that they will wish to speak with the PPG at that time.

  • The Iron Age Tom Moore
    The Iron Age Tom Moore INTRODUCfiON In the twenty years since Alan Saville's (1984) review of the Iron Age in Gloucestershire much has happened in Iron-Age archaeology, both in the region and beyond.1 Saville's paper marked an important point in Iron-Age studies in Gloucestershire and was matched by an increasing level of research both regionally and nationally. The mid 1980s saw a number of discussions of the Iron Age in the county, including those by Cunliffe (1984b) and Darvill (1987), whilst reviews were conducted for Avon (Burrow 1987) and Somerset (Cunliffe 1982). At the same time significant advances and developments in British Iron-Age studies as a whole had a direct impact on how the period was viewed in the region. Richard Hingley's (1984) examination of the Iron-Age landscapes of Oxfordshire suggested a division between more integrated unenclosed communities in the Upper Thames Valley and isolated enclosure communities on the Cotswold uplands, arguing for very different social systems in the two areas. In contrast, Barry Cunliffe' s model ( 1984a; 1991 ), based on his work at Danebury, Hampshire, suggested a hierarchical Iron-Age society centred on hillforts directly influencing how hillforts and social organisation in the Cotswolds have been understood (Darvill1987; Saville 1984). Together these studies have set the agenda for how the 1st millennium BC in the region is regarded and their influence can be felt in more recent syntheses (e.g. Clarke 1993). Since 1984, however, our perception of Iron-Age societies has been radically altered. In particular, the role of hillforts as central places at the top of a hierarchical settlement pattern has been substantially challenged (Hill 1996).

  • Communications Roads Cheltenham Lies on Routes Connecting the Upper Severn Vale with the Cotswolds to the East and Midlands to the North
    DRAFT – VCH Gloucestershire 15 [Cheltenham] Communications Roads Cheltenham lies on routes connecting the upper Severn Vale with the Cotswolds to the east and Midlands to the north. Several major ancient routes passed nearby, including the Fosse Way, White Way and Salt Way, and the town was linked into this important network of roads by more local, minor routes. Cheltenham may have been joined to the Salt Way running from Droitwich to Lechlade1 by Saleweistrete,2 or by the old coach road to London, the Cheltenham end of which was known as Greenway Lane;3 the White Way running north from Cirencester passed through Sandford.4 The medieval settlement of Cheltenham was largely ranged along a single high street running south-east and north-west, with its church and manorial complex adjacent to the south, and burgage plots (some still traceable in modern boundaries) running back from both frontages.5 Documents produced in the course of administering the liberty of Cheltenham refer to the via regis, the king’s highway, which is likely to be a reference to this public road running through the liberty. 6 Other forms include ‘the royal way at Herstret’ and ‘the royal way in the way of Cheltenham’ (in via de Cheltenham). Infringements recorded upon the via regis included digging and ploughing, obstruction with timbers and dungheaps, the growth of trees and building of houses.7 The most important local roads were those running from Cheltenham to Gloucester, and Cheltenham to Winchcombe, where the liberty administrators were frequently engaged in defending their lords’ rights. Leland described the roads around Cheltenham, Gloucester and Tewkesbury as ‘subject to al sodeyne risings of Syverne, so that aftar reignes it is very foule to 1 W.S.
